How can we guard our hearts against pride and grow in humility?

  • Meditate deeply on Christ and the gospel
  • Be involved in serving others in some kind of capacity
  • Learn to do things excellently not for the sake of recognition or praise, but strictly for the glory of God à “Pride gets no pleasure out of having something, only out of having more of it than the next man... It is the comparison that makes you proud: the pleasure of being above the rest. Once the element of competition is gone, pride is gone.” – C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity
  • Confess your sins often, both to God and to others
